I’m glad nothing happened here even with the wind.

Well they originally started off in Florida or thereabouts. Went to Universal or Disney or both, I don’t know. Then their last stops would be in Toronto and Niagara Falls. Since Florida is like tropic, it was probably still too harsh for them to go from hot/warm to cold. Hahaha, and I warned my friend when she was telling me her itinerary on Discord to pack a few layers for the November temps in Toronto, bring a hat, scarf, gloves if possible but I think they underestimated it lol. I was fine with just a windbreaker/lighter jacket and a hat but they were freezing hahaha. 8-10 is nothing for Canada lol. I told her before about the negative degree temps, windchill factors and showed her pictures of my backyard covered in snow but...*shrugs and laughs*

I bet they didn't think it would be THAT cold if you've never experienced it before.

When my mom went to Europe she forgot that every country besides the USA uses celsius so she read the celsius temps as Fahrenheit and freaked out and bought clothes and shoes rated for extremely cold temperatures...turns out she didn't need those.

I thought I would be caught up on the minimum butterflies per day after last nights hunting...still behind. Hopefully after tonight I will. I'm ready to be done with them.

*flails at all the allergens in the air*
I'm grateful people still have work but I really wish my apartment complex had told the yard guys to take a vacation this week x.x

But it wasn’t really THAT cold in Canadian terms. Buuuut probably it would’ve considered cold in Filipino terms lol!

That's what I meant. If they aren't used to the cold they would think any cold that's colder than there usual is really cold. lol

I'm so glad I don't have allergies.

Yeah grass allergens were already high (according to the alert on my phone and my sinuses) and then the yard crew comes through and kicks it all up into the air :mcargh:

Haha oh well.

I’m glad I don’t have allergies either. My dad does so he’s always sneezing. Of course, in this current day, sneezing a lot is not exactly a good thing...

Luckily it's not a common symptom but yes I still got embarrassed, (even wearing a mask!) when I had to sneeze at the pharmacy yesterday.

I need to give the allergy medicine I bought away to someone who needs it. The doctor suggested it to see if I had allergies (pretty sure my jaw in what's making my face/throat hurt and the dentist is closed so I can't go see them) and they didn't work so now I have a whole bottle that's just sitting there.
